Superman Returns

Decided I needed to get the windows tinted in my car - so I went to see the 3M autocare chaps at IBN Buttuta mall. They said it would take a couple of hours so I took in the new Super Returns movie.

This movie is loooong - well over two hours. Not that I mind a long movie it is just that there are a few points where it was just not moving fast enough. Kevin Spacey was great as Lex Luthor and the Superman had a flawless hair the whole way through the film which was a bit odd. The special effects were great but the story I felt was lacking in places. I thought they could have got Lex Luthor to be much more evil.

Overall - 6/10 - OK - but I liked X-Men 3 better

X-men rocked!

Are you happy with the tint?

The chaps at the 3M tint center did an excellent job - I was very pleased. I went for 30% on all windows and 10% on the windshield. it looks great and was 1200AED all in with a 5 year warranty.

I still shake my head that they allow such heavy tints on the windscreens here.

I've seen cars with close to 100% down to halfway - it must significantly cut down visibility and the ability to see ahead.

The "limo" shaded windows while having a certain element of cool are very dangerous IMHO. I need glasses to drive and on the on occasion have had my prescription sunglasses on when the light dims - you can basically see nothing i.e. other cars, road signs and landmarks. I imagine it must be the same with windows tinted so dark.

Oh and Georgia - on reflection Superman was a real let down...
